WASHINGTON, D.C. - Today, Rep. Dan Newhouse (WA-04) released the following statement after the Supreme Court issued its decision in Trump v. Barbara.

"While the United States remains one of the most welcoming nations for immigrants, decades of failure to secure our borders and enforce our immigration laws has resulted in the abuse and misuse of birthright citizenship and I supported the administration's efforts to curtail those abuses," said Rep. Newhouse.

Newhouse continued, "The Fourteenth Amendment to the Constitution was intended for the children of slaves who were born in the United States, it was not designed for foreign nationals to flock to our borders and secure citizenship for their expected child. While I am disappointed with the ruling from the Supreme Court, this should be a wakeup call for Congress to address our immigration crisis."
